I don’t see this ruling surviving federal court scrutiny, under the “fruits of the poisonous tree” doctrine.
Never thought I’d live to see the day when freezers would be calling for help and cheering on the leftist Democrat appointed Federal judges.
Freezers should be Freepers, of course.
You never know what a judge will do regardless of who appoints them.
It was a black female Clinton appointee who slapped the feds hard and acquitted the Hutaree of all charges here in Michigan.
Most of the posters on FR have drunk the Kool-Aid.
It’s hard not to when the MSM drowns everyone in it.
I don’t have a problem dropping the exclusionary rule. But then you have to independently and aggressively prosecute official malfeasance.
As for state’s rights, the Constitution guarantees every state will have a republican - small r - form of government, which would not exist if states could abrogate the people’s rights. We did not embrace small tyrannies - until recently that is.
Yes, the comments on this thread betray a woeful understanding of the exclusionary rule, invented by Federal judges around, I believe 1920, and initially applicable only to federal cases. There needs to be a way to control law enforcement, and deter them from violating the civil rights of citizens, but that does not necessarily require the exclusion of evidence of guilt. It is just the method that judges chose—performing as legislators in the process.
“Never thought I’d live to see the day when freezers would be calling for help ...”
Ohhhhh! That’s cold.
I never thought that I’d see the day when freezers (Freepers) would applaud the trampling of the Constitution in the name of going after criminals. That’s what the Nazis did and it led to tyranny.
Never thought I'd see the day when FReepers would be cheering for police officers to be lowlife scumbag criminal jackboot Gestapo thugs trashing the Constitution of the United States of America with the full-throated approval of judges.
Expressing an opinion on how the courts are likely to rule is not the same thing as expressing a preference for how they rule.
"Freezers should be Freepers"
No-You got it right the first time. The Freezers are a group run by some guy named Jim Thompson- FYI.
